To Mac...

Oooh Ma Oooh Pa
Must the show go on
Oooh Pa take me
Oooh Ma let me go
There must be some mistake
I didn't mean to let them
Take away my soul
Am I too old is it too late
Oooh Ma Oooh Pa
Where has the feeling gone?
Oooh Ma Oooh Pa
Will I remember the songs?
Oooooh aah the show must go on.


Not much to go on, sadly. The show was all kinds of "ALRIGHT" yesterday, certainly not something I will have on as appointment radio.

Where do we go from here?

We find out Friday.

At the top of the show Grimace announced that Abbatacola and Grote will be in tomorrow, and that he's cutting transition short today. This asshole's indifference with his job, even with now being the leader of it, never ceases to amaze me!

He really goes out of his way to tell his employer, and his customers (the listeners), that he doesn't give a damn about his job...all while trying to paint himself as some poor, put-upon schlub.

Yeah, his situation might not be ideal but how many people have an ideal situation at work?

A whole segment about people in sports that have flipped the bird? Bad.

Well, I am about ready to scratch another show off my list. This is bad on every level. It's tough for me to listen to Rozner in any context, but there is no flow to the midday show. It seems like a shotgun approach to sports talk radio.

I gave LoHo about 30 minutes of my time this morning for the 120 show. With the somewhat scripted nature of the topics, it gives the show more structure.

This is beyond bad. Transition which is the highest rated segment is soon going to be over. Just crazy. Spending time with the game

It's an abomination and The Score is stuck.

I'm praying that the new partner isn't horrible and things will improve once the show line up stabilizes. But I'm not holding out much hope.

Transition has been stale for the longest.

Meat: Hello boys! Did you stay awake last night, Terry?

Terry: I did and then I didn't, I saw nothing and I saw everything.

Mac: So Dan, the discussion today has been something that you don't agree with, care to elaborate?

Dan: I think you have to look at this preternaturally, as the full narrative has yet to excogitate.

Meat: Well Dan, you've expressed yourself in the past as this is the right thing, now are you saying that it isn't the right thing? What is so different about this situation?

Dan: I don't think I fully expressed the exact words you're stating.

Terry: No, no, uh, no, at least not the way you're stating it, no.

Dan: I'd rather talk about the side dish my son ordered last night with flawless pronunciation.

Meat: And you ordered the 3 McDoubles and 2 large fries to get change back from your ten spot.

Terry: Hmmmm, Bonus Jack. But the Jack Taco you could have.

Dan: Where's Mac?

Meat: He left about four minutes ago.


Meat opens
Terry parrots
Mac says a few obligatory words
Bernstein deflects
Terry parrots by saying something weird
Meat stretches the segment because its sponsored
Bernstein takes the discussion where he wants it to go
Mac is halfway through a 'Boro light.

Anyone have a ice pick? I like to jam it into my ears so I do not have to listen to this anymore. I tried, figure why not. I am out. I might try tomorrow with Matt and Mark.

They should just move the Saturday Wake and Bake to mid days, at least that would be entertaining.

You don't have to commit suicide in order to not have to listen to the ahow anymore. Just switch the station.

I can understand it though, it is awful.

Are you speculating it's over or did they announce this?

I agree with the above that transition is simultaneously stale but also a segment I'm more likely to listen to. Even its predictability is less than the rest of the Bernstein Radio Agenda for a particular day.

Pure speculation. None of the guest hosts want to do it and unless it is Drinky or Barry it is even more akward. Considering it is now what all stations are doing now it won't die though.

Agreed, but only because Jim Palmer is a good interview. Nice interview bomb by Mr Smug Steve Stone. Grimace referencing Playgirl and Jockey underwear was icky!

I thought hyperbole was règle de la journée here. Was I wrong?

I'm not going to kill myself, I switched the station. However, this is freaking bad radio.

The Game it is. Even if it's bad, at least it has a newer feel. Rozner sounds like a senile grandpa in a rocking chair complaining about stupid stuff, saying things only he finds funny, and then repeating himself every ten minutes.

He couldn't sound more disinterested if he tried.

Oh man, Meat bragging about going to Vegas for a few days to get blasted and do a gig.

They show will most likely have his name in lights...looks like he is taking the bull by the horns and running away from it. The more things change.....

My God could Spiegel be more smug and condescending lately? When Darwin Barney was innocuously mentioned he chimed in, "Oh yeah, the guy that makes fun of him doesn't work here anymore!" He really thinks he's that...damn...good! :roll:

Holy crap, Dallas, you nailed it - what a cocky and smug a-hole. I caught the last 15mins of the show, and you could hear his giant chest puffing out as he addressed hot topics like worst MVP of all-time.

And what happened, meatpants, thought YOU were cutting transition short today? It's 1:15, and still going.

Just incredible that this asshat is taking off to Vegas and leaving his show for whomever they Score has laying around......what a disinterested fatass.

Had it on in the car for the first time in forever. Loved when grimace asked ZZ for an extended forcast for the day (after he mentioned the bears were practicing indoors due to the early rain) and he said he wasn't a meteorologist in a go fuck yourself asshole tone. .....and what the hell was that "whats in the box" segment?? Is that really a segment?? Is that really what they are going to do from now on with Mac gone??

What's in the box has been going on since Mac was there. Doesn't make it any cooler because you CANT SEE WHAT'S IN THE BOX BECAUSE YOU ARE ON THE RADIO.
